As we begin planning for our Portobello Road Pop Up, Meg has created some designs for linen and cotton tea towels featuring English themes. Using illustrations, old line drawings, vintage and antique maps, she creates collages with whimsey and history.

Taking lines from the British anthem, this design is an homage to the Queen.

This antique scheme for a country garden is the centerpiece on this design.

The original illustration for Alice in Wonderland and tea-time… What could be more English?

Strawberries and cream… Summertime in England.

Taking lines from the British anthem, this design is a nod to Britian’s storied history.

Locally, we have this amazing bird’s eye drawing of Baltimore from 1912, complete with many buildings you will recognize. The original drawing has been colorized for better clarity.

This is a collage of a vintage map of the Chesapeake & Delaware Bays, and our historic Maryland flag.

The Portobello Road Pop-Up begins on Friday, September 16th. We hope to see you there.
